If there are already a lot of files, how to move them to the SeaweedFS the most efficient way?

1. Setup Filer

  1. create a filer.toml file, see the output of "weed scaffold -config=filer"
  2. choose and setup a filer data store. It is OK to just pick one and use it. You can always switch later.
  3. start the filer

Example: weed filer -master=localhost:9333

2. Mount

  • If you want to copy files via OS-provided copy command, start the "weed mount"

Example: weed mount -filer=localhost:8888 -dir=/some/dir

3. Copy Files

The easiest way is just to use the OS-provided copy command from the command line. However, usually it is single-threaded.

The most efficient way is to use "weed filer.copy". It is multi-threaded and bypasses the FUSE layer.

Example: weed filer.copy file_or_dir1 [file_or_dir2 file_or_dir3] http://localhost:8888/path/to/a/folder/
